The USA cannot save the world.

For as long as memory serves the business owners wanted cheap labor. The liberal religions thought they were to save mankind.

Get real. Neither works for the country.

When every person who wants to work has a job that pays a living wage, then we can import people.

Capitalism does not work.

I don't care if all who entered illegally get sent back home. But the instant that happens, all who hired them need to be imprisoned. Million dollar fines are just a cost of doing business. Imprisoning those who hire is the only way to stop illegal immigration.

You can't force someone to learn English if it's not even the national language. You can't assume that the skills they have will allow them to support themselves over time. The more skilled, the more that they are coming for the higher wage earners' positions.
There's this fantasy that wages will stabilize without immigrants but unless you're willing to pay $10/lb for grapes or 3x for home repairs, etc then you're wrong. Any increased wages you might see will quickly be overtaken by the price increase.
Immigrants aren't on welfare bc they're lazy, it's bc people are fine with paying them $3-8/hr.
So Australia and Canada have racist immigration systems?

The CNN guy was embarrassing. He should have his press credentials revoked. Since when do dopey reporters argue policy with people who have IQ's 100 pts higher than them?

What a despicable thing to say!^^^^

You attempt to compare having a sensible immigration policy to what the Nazis did? SMH.

Most people complain about the minimum wage increases causing trouble, what happens when you are used to getting a new roof for 10k and the new price is 20k bc they can't exploit immigrants anymore?
You get unused to it. You pay Americans a decent wage just like everyone did before the open border fiasco. That's always the sorry excuse liberals have for promoting open borders and catering to illegals.
BTW, it's not about speaking proper English. It's about knowing enough English to get by and hopefully assimilate like my parents did. Being able to communicate with very basic English is important to being able to do that rather than immigrating here and not having a clue if someone is asking you what time it is or where's the nearest bus depot.

Every liberal will think he was awful because he stood up for himself, made sense and didn't let the media run all over him. Yes, that's awful if you're a liberal hoping he would stumble on every word and not get the information out without getting beat up.

That's so typical of you to say something like that. When you don't have an argument, call someone a Nazi. It's so liberal of you.
